Exit / Dark Matter

  • Steven Parrino

The exhibition is curated by Michel Ritter

Affiliated with the emerging punk rock scene  of Lower Manhattan, the work of Steven Parrino injects into the field of the art of the sides of the popular culture, at the same time more “low” and more lively.

It is noticed that in specific parameters Steven Parrino invented a practice which constantly produces a new interpretation of itself. Although the artist has already often re appropriated the iconography of comics since the beginning of his career, Exit/Dark Matter, presented at Fri-Art, constitutes his first project on a large scale investing the codes of the comic book. “Exit”, pure drawing associated with the comic book, is opposed to “Dark Matter”, drawings of a disconcerting abstraction. The two series are carried out on small sizes to stick with the reality of the universe of comics.
